Elizabeth West High School: The End (Part 2) 

I was an EWHS student in 1970/71 and returned as a teacher in 1993 when it became Para West Adult Campus and was there until it closed and was shifted to the Elizabeth TAFE campus. Many life long memories and a deep connection to the school, its staff and students and the area in general - thank you Will for uploading!

As always a fantastic look back at our younger days. Thanks Will, for ALL your videos! :D

Thank you for watching. For more videos of the Elizabeth that was, please like and subscribe, it's free and it all helps. Cheers, Will 🙏

I never went to EWHS (nor SPHS for that matter) but grew up in the northern suburbs in the 80's-90's and attented Parafield Gardens High School which is of similiar vintage to those former schools. While my former student self probably would of revelled in a schools destruction, looking back now it's sad to see these schools demolished and all that history lost. While school isn't always a great experience, getting older you realise just how big a part of your life it played and the many happy memories you experienced along the way so I now couldn't imagine this happening to my school and I'm sad it happened to them.

So sad the time capsule was never recovered 😢. It kind of makes a mockery of putting one in place . Looking at the young people, it brings back so many memories of happier times.....( apart from the 'conscription era 😢 ).

It makes me sad. A beloved past lost to time.

Video turned out great. Glad my demolition footage came in handy lol. Can’t believe there is already houses there and roads. Done so quickly

Hi Will another great job, I was keeping an eye out in case I saw anyone I knew all my mates went to this school including my first wife but no luck. I was sent to Freemont boy's technical high school so missed out on meeting girls, until I left school. And wouldn't you know it the same year I left they let the girls in and it became just Freemont high school.😫 The same guy that I play in a musical duo with these days went there, OMG 48 years ago and we are still mates today. I remember we started a band together and my mate was able to hire a hall in the school in witch we practiced every Saturday without fail so I did actually set foot in there at least. My first wife was my mates girlfriends best friend so we were all close mates. After your last video I looked on google earth at Elizabeth West, my old house, stomping ground and the west shopping centre, it was like looing at a totally different place with some things that looked sort of familiar but so weird seeing it as it was in my head and reality through my eyes. Thank you Will for all your hard work putting these vids together so many memories. 👍🏻

I attended this campus as an adult years after it ceased to be a highschool but before demolition

Sad to see an old school being torn down but I did think briefly , wow that would be a fun job driving that digger lol. Us old men are still boys at heart!
